How do you know if he's read it if its email?

You can get a comfirmation of reading sent to you.

Does the fact i check if he's read it make me really stalkerish?

Reply 6

A bit, but not really. Just shows you're interested.

Reply 7

stalkerish, real stalkerish, just give it time

Leave him for a bit. If it was me, I'd be pretty pissed you wouldn't leave me alone. I've got more interesting things than just you in my life. Leave him for a week or two, pretend you have your own life, then get back to him. A little less annoying next time.

Wow this sounds strangely similar to a situation I'm going through. It's been nearly a month since I've heard a word :rolleyes: . I just think you need to give it time. As others have said he might be busy and just hasn't got round to replying yet. I can be quite bad at replying to messages sometimes too but I always get round to them at some point. Don't worry about it OP. BTW has he replied yet? :smile:

Yeah give him a chance as someone else said if you are like this now what you gonna be like being actually with him. You need to give him a bit of space.

Sheesh, back off a bit.

He's either not replying because a) He got distracted/has something else to do/is busy

or

b) He doesn't want to.

In any case, if he wants to reply to you, he will, and you sending more emails pestering him isn't going to make that any more likely.

Cliginess is an unattractive quality, he is probably playing it cool which is what you should do. Let him make the next move.

Honestly, if you want to get with the guy then back off him. A girl showing too much interest is so off-putting (unless you're head over heels for her anyway). Ignore him a bit, make him wait for replies. At the same time don't seem totally uninterested. It's a fine balance, but at the moment you're seeming way too keen.
